g, Akshully I was the feisty one (and even re-edited for syncopated emphasis); couldn't resist a sardonic entre tonite for some reason. You're 101% per normal. CP

As you have sort of done in your post, a 'case study' approach offers a lot of insight, and a spring board for further discussion. It is useful to mention the particular stock and date that a trusted indicator gave a valuable signal which might have been acted on. In the AOL case, StochRSI didn't prove valuable. Whereas with MRK, it did, but for just a single day. Maybe there was a second indicator that, if looked at concurrently with the StochRSI, could have added additional value to the signal? Like oil and vinegar on a salad.
